That will work. What you have to know, is the total amount of pages for
each 'page', in the census you're looking for. Therefore, if the census is
numbered 1A, 1B, 1C, 1D, and you need page 9C, you're going to want to move
ahead 34 pages from page 1A, to get to it. Where it says for instance,
image # 13, you'd over type that, and make it 47 instead, and then click
your enter key.

Pat,

Take a look in the address line of your browser when you are at the
first page of the census. There might be a page number as a part of
the address and if that is the case, you should be able to replace it
with the page # you want. Of course, this all depends on how the site
is set up but I have had a lot of success doing this on other sites.

Note that not every site that has page #s uses consecutive numbers and
I don't know if it works with sites that use java applets.

Anyway, you can't ruin anything by trying it.

Good Luck,
Margaret
